Course Summary

Home > Courses >Back-End Development Training >Node.js >Introduction to Node.js

Node.js is a JavaScript runtime environment built on Google Chrome’s V8 JavaScript engine. Node allows developers to use JavaScript on the client as well as the server and allows for the easy creation of dynamic, real-time applications. The Introduction to Node.js training course will get developers started with the Node.js platform.

The course begins with a discussion of how a Node.js server operates differently from other web servers. The course will then analyze the language and discuss the benefits of using Node for applications and build command-line applications and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) servers using Node.js. The Introduction to Node.js course concludes with an exploration of the Node.js community and ways in which to build applications using the 3rd party frameworks Express and Socket.IO. This course would be valuable for developers and developer teams who need a fast way to learn Node and begin using it in their applications.
